Gathoni Wamuchomba","speaker":null,"content":" Allow me to speak as a farmer, as I argue out this space. We are speaking about a member who is going to be part of the Coffee Board of Kenya. What is the function of the Coffee Board of Kenya? One of the functions of the Coffee Board of Kenya is that it is mandated to make sure that we qualify for marketing activities. You need to be the person who understands the grading of coffee and the profiling of coffee. You need all the technical understanding that is needed for you to be able to propagate and profile your coffee, whether in Kenya or outside Kenya. What kind of a person do you think can sit on that board and effectively represent the interests of farmers? We are not talking about the chairman of a co-operative society. We are speaking about a board member of a national body called the Coffee Board of Kenya. So, we need people who can ably represent our quality coffee. Thank you very much. I beseech everybody who is debating this matter to consider and reconsider that the people we are entrusting with the Coffee Board of Kenya are not just jokers. They are people who understand what you are talking about."},{"id":1497663,"url":"http://info.mzalendo.com/api/v0.1/hansard/entries/1497663/?format=json","text_counter":658,"type":"speech","speaker_name":"Hon.
